At least 36 people, including 24 children are dead following an horrific childcare centre massacre

Thailand is mourning the loss of 36 lives, after a man carried out a massacre attack on a childcare centre in the northeast of the nation.

It’s believed the horrific attack was carried out by a man with a knife and gun, while the children were asleep, before killing himself and his family.

Thailand’s Royal police says the man, a former officer, had been suspended from duty on January 20 after “he was accused of committing a serious disciplinary violation.”

During a search of his residence, police discovered a tablet of “yaba”, which is a combination of methamphetamine and caffeine.

In Thailand, it is “crazy medicine.” 

The alleged attacker had previously appeared in court on a drug possession charge.

The images are heartbreaking and we condemn this act of violence and stand ready to assist our long-standing ally Thailand in whatever they need.”
